In the didactics of the foreign language, the notion of text is very important as it favors success in language teaching. All the linguistic-communicative contents are based on a wide array of texts that will have to respond to the needs of the students. Our work presents the importance of choosing the texts in the didactic of the Italian language, focusing on the concept of the text, the presentation of the various types of text also analyzing the various criterians of textuality. Analyzing the characteristics of the texts in the didactic field our contribution underlines the analysis of the learners' needs which leads us to consider the various texts to be used in a language course. Some important considerations in this context are the nature of the learner, his age, his culture of origin, the training needs and his linguistic and communicative competence. The focus is also on the analysis of the texts that we find in some Italian books that are used in our schools and in our language courses.
